Living with MS? This Low-Dose Therapy May Help You Feel Like Yourself Again
Multiple sclerosis (MS) can feel like your body is working against you—fatigue, numbness, and flare-ups that interrupt your daily life. And while there are several disease-modifying therapies out there, not everyone responds well to them. That’s why many people living with MS are exploring supportive options like Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN).
How Can LDN Help in MS?
While LDN is not a cure for MS, it’s showing real promise as a supportive therapy. Research and patient experiences suggest that LDN may:
Reduce MS-related fatigue
Support cognitive clarity and reduce brain fog
Help ease muscle spasticity and pain
Improve mood and overall well-being
Potentially slow disease progression in some cases
Best of all? Most people tolerate LDN very well, with few side effects—mainly vivid dreams or mild sleep disturbances early on.
Why Choose LDN for MS?
Unlike traditional MS medications that suppress the immune system, LDN helps regulate it gently. By briefly blocking opioid receptors, LDN triggers the body to produce more endorphins—feel-good chemicals that also influence immune function, inflammation, and pain perception.
This means you’re not just masking symptoms—you’re supporting the body’s natural healing processes.
What the Research Says
While more large-scale clinical trials are needed, small studies and growing anecdotal evidence support LDN’s use in MS care. Patients have reported:
Improved quality of life
Less reliance on conventional pain or fatigue medications
Fewer side effects compared to biologics or steroids
Getting Started with LDN
LDN is a compounded medication, which means it needs to be specially prepared by a compounding pharmacy like Preston’s. You’ll need a prescription from a provider who understands LDN and how to integrate it into your overall MS treatment plan.
